The rooms are not cleaned while you are there, just new towels and bed made. Bathroom wasn't cleaned over the 8 days I was there, or the floor swept. Pool is not supervised - people bring in speakers (not allowed in pool rules) and are let go and a guest had to jump in to save someone that passed out drunk in the pool. Staff English needs to improve - hard to understand and they can't understand any requests that you make that are a bit different.

Great location, friendly staff and clean/well kept amenities. Convenient restaurant downstairs and a short walk from the Darwin waterfront. A short walk also to bus #15 which will take you on a city-loop.

One of the best hotels we have ever stayed in. We walked in without a booking & were pleasantly received. We were given a beautiful corner room on the 19th
floor overlooking the harbour & wharf region. Our room was serviced daily, lovely pool area & walking distance to all attractions, all the staff were amazing & the included breakfast was excellent.

Room tip: They have off street parking for a fee

Good location for Darwin, links to main roads and nearby Waterfront area. Nice room with a view. Restaurant downstairs was convenient and had a good variety of food for breakfast.
